A late night call from Cumbria Police about an inexperienced walker who had become separated from his group. He had mis-navigated and ended up on some steep ground below the Corridor Route.
After some difficulties in making contact directly, an accurate location was determined. As the walker was uninjured, a small party was tasked to located and then escort the walker off the fell, after which he was re-united with the rest of his group.
